Forging a sound which takes in folk, country and blues, with a style and delivery which has invited comparisons with Tim Buckley and Jim Morrison as well as calling to mind Johnny Cash and Ray Charles, Tarq Bowen is the definitive singer-songwriter with a vintage yet modern feel, creating music which doesn’t fit into genre categorization but which makes sense as soon as you hear it.
Tarq Bowen è un cantautore londinese. Nella sua musica ha forgiato un suono che prende il folk, country e blues invitando al confronto con Tim Buckley e Jim Morrison , nonché richiamando alla mente Johnny Cash e Ray Charles.
Crea un’ atmosfera moderna con la sua musica che non può essere categorizzata, ma si comprende, non appena la si ascolta.
Forte di una grossa collaborazione come quella avuta con Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), con questo tour europeo Tarq Bowen sta portando in giro la sua musica e il suo primo singolo uscito il 1 Agosto 2016.
Gary Lucas ha detto su di lui “Tarq is one of the most impressive young singer-songwriters i’ve heard in quite some time and a damn good guitar to boot”.
Maverick Magazine:” tarq is one of the most exciting takent i have heard this year. Tim &Jeff Buckley meet Jim Morrison in Tarq Bowen’s spirit and vocal!.
Con la sua Band ha vinto premi prestigiosi:
•Shure songwriting award 2012 – 2nd
•ISC – 2013 Honourable mention
